Japanese Ramen and Sake Bar. Miso is a paste made from fermented soy beans and barley or rice malt. It is traditional Japanese seasoning and used in a range of dishes from soups, to glazes, to dips and pickles. Miso is high in protein and contains a range of vitamins and minerals including B12, B3, E, K, iron and calcium. About miso ramen: In 1923, Chinese immigrant chef Mr Wang started work at the Takeya Café near Hokkaido University in Sapporo, Japan. He developed his own noodle and soup dishes that would appeal to the Japanese palette. His dishes were so successful that they were copied and in 1951 Ramen Alley in downtown Sapporo became nationally famous. Misoya Ramen: Misoya has developed its own miso ramen with a thick miso soup made from chicken and vegetable stock in consideration of Australian tastes and preferences. Egg noodles and fresh seasonal vegetables result in a ramen that is bound to please and will make you want to come back for more.

Excellent is the only word to start describing the experience here. It's hard to find a place that truly stands out from others. The service is second to none and the place is cozy and inviting. The dining room was full and the staff did not skip a beat, consistently delivering warm, engaging and genuine interaction throughout the evening. From the moment you are greeted to the time you leave the team make you feel welcome. The food is delicious and inspiring. We were recommended to order the Feed Me menu. That hit the spot perfectly. The pickled baby cucumbers were my favourite dish even though it's really hard to pick a favourite. I cannot recommend Lagoon Dining highly enough and I'm looking forward to coming back very soon.

Such an incredible environment with even better food and the staff are exceptional! They didn’t rush us, even though we were running slightly late due to waiting for a family member and they provided excellent quality care and service. Highly recommend.
